Weleda do a massage oil to help prepare the perineum for childbirth. I have no idea how well it works, but I'm happy with the other Weleda products I've tried.

Weleda Perineum Massage Oil

I've seen it at the local pharmacy.]]> Sun, 24 Feb 2013 21:53:46 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43070&PID=5827642&title=preparing-for-birth#5827642 <![CDATA[Preparing for birth : Have you tried the massaging technique...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43070&PID=5827351&title=preparing-for-birth#5827351 Author: Supra34

Have you tried the massaging technique that is often mentioned? I think its something that you need to do months ahead. I don't think its proven to work or not but I'm definately willing to try anything.]]> Wed, 20 Feb 2013 21:46:59 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43070&PID=5827351&title=preparing-for-birth#5827351 <![CDATA[Preparing for birth : I am up to baby number three,...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43070&PID=5827283&title=preparing-for-birth#5827283 Author: thunderwolves

I am up to baby number three, and have had terrible tearing and needed epesiotomys
both times, I'm hoping to avoid it this time, but not confident, I have very quick births and dialate internally, 
but have to time for my body to externally prepare,
I remember reading about some creams and stuff designed to help prepare the perenium for birth,
think they kind of softened and conditioned the skin,
I mentally filed this info, but can't find it in my brain..
If any one has any ideas or info on products that may help it would be much appreciated
